Pour one out for the library that saved us from IE6 compatibility nightmares and made us feel like wizards for writing $('#myElement').fadeIn() instead of 17 lines of vanilla JS.

SWEET MOTHER OF MARGIN COLLAPSE! You change ONE TINY PIXEL of padding and suddenly your entire website looks like it was hit by a nuclear CSS bomb! 💥 That moment when you're like "I'll just tweak this little margin real quick" and your layout transforms into a shocked Pikachu face. The CSS gods are LAUGHING at your pathetic attempts to control the chaos. One semicolon out of place and suddenly you're in an alternate dimension where nothing makes sense and everything is just... BROKEN. And yet we keep coming back for more punishment. Frontend masochism at its finest!
